Dayton police have not yet apprehended a shooter in an incident that has left a Dayton teenager with a critical gunshot wound to the head.

Dayton police did locate a person of interest who was fleeing the scene. Officers arrested 20-year-old Sean Walker in the area of Fourth Street and Wayne Avenue for carrying a concealed weapon.

But police told us Thursday afternoon that they do not believe he is the teen's attacker.

They're still searching for the shooter.

The 17-year-old male victim is fighting for his life this afternoon after the incident near the downtown RTA Hub.

EARLIER REPORT

A teenager is in critical condition after being shot in the head in downtown Dayton Wednesday evening.

Police officers chased down a 20-year-old person of interest after a sergeant, in a cruiser across from the RTA hub on Main Street, heard a gunshot and was flagged down by a citizen around 9:50 p.m. The sergeant located the victim in the area of Fourth and Jefferson streets and saw the 20-year-old, running, Dayton Lt. Steven Bauer said.

One hiker was found suffering from a hip injury. One, or both of the hikers were also showing signs of hypothermia, according to officials.

Rescue crews had to use a boat to get the injured hikers to safety. Around 3:15 p.m., scanner traffic from the scene indicated both hikers were off the boat and safely on land at one of the boat ramps with medics tending to them.

Tonight: Snow has moved out, but lingering moisture means we could see some drizzle or fog at times tonight, said Storm Center 7 Meteorologist Brett Collar. Temperatures will continue to drop tonight and overnight, with lows eventually reaching the upper 20s. Due to the dropping temperatures, an isolated slick spot will be possible on the roads.

﻿Monday: Rain returns to the area, and overall it appears to be a rather soggy day. Highs will be in the middle 40s. Highs will climb to the lower 60s.
